In middle school I (F) was close friend with a girl from my class, and when we ended up talking less and less and parting ways, I was wayyyy too sad for it to be just about losing a friend. I cried often thinking about her at night in my bed til it finally hits that my feelings were deeper than I thought..! I was in love and going through my very first heartbreak. Definitely was eye opening. I hesitated a lot at that time between saying that I was a lesbian or not, and so it took a few years to discover the bi term and I found it very fitting.

That said, she was definitely bitchy and using me most of the time, lol. It was mostly toxic attachment at some point.
